A modern fireplace is often characterized by clean lines and largest possible view of the flames - an the perfect focal point in your livingroom. It is no longer used as the main heating source of your home, but as a supplementary to cut heating costs and to create warm and cozy evenings. To find the right design, size and look for your future fireplace, it is important to consider how it fits your dreams AND your living space.
Many people want a “fireplace in the chimney” - a fireplace insert integrated into the existing chimney or flush with the wall in the firewall – a minimalist construction, with clean and sharper lines, which also saves a lot of floor space. Unfortunately, there are a number of structural regulations which must be followed, which means that a little innovative thinking is needed to achieve this solution. An existing pipe or chimney is considered to be a load-bearing structure in a home, which means that it is neither legal nor possible to remove certain parts of it.
To achieve that clean, elegant look of a fireplace insert integrated into the chimney, the insert is therefore installed either in front of or on one side of the chimney. It is also possible to use an adjacent room behind the wall, or to simply build out the entire wall from floor to ceiling so that it is flush with the chimney.
The discreet and exclusive series of built-in inserts are fitted with a black glass door. The glass handle completes the design and the clean lines, and remains cool for as long as the fire is lit.
What sets the models apart is a broader view of the flames. The inserts spread warmth in an optimal way and give you a widescreen view of the flames.

A corner fireplace can be built into a corner and create a cozy nook in a room, or installed in an external corner. Many people want a fireplace which offers a good view of the flames, but does not take up too much space.
Many Scan stoves fireplace inserts have glass on several sides and are therefore also ideal for building into an external corner, so that you can see the flames from around the room. With these solutions, either the new fireplace is built into the side of the chimney, or the room behind is used to house the fireplace insert itself.
